[quote=Anonymous]I'd let it be.

If they do end up in the same camp group, I would have a brief and private conversation with the group's counselor at the start of camp.  Without being overly dramatic, I'd let him/her know that the two girls sometimes get along and sometimes have conflict when they're together.  Then I'd ask that he/she keep an eye on them to see how they're doing, and let him/her know you'll touch base in a day or two to see how it's going.

Hopefully they do well together without the third girl in the mix.  If so, this will be a great lesson for your DD.  That sometimes friendships work themselves out and that people can learn to make better choices and be nicer friends.

Finally, if they are able to do well together in camp, it may put things on a better path once all three girls are back together in Daisys, and it may help DD avoid anchoring on the social drama these girls previously put into play.

Of course, if the other girl is unkind or mean at camp, by all means work with the counselor to find ways to resolve it, including switching someone's group if necessary.[/quote]
